Yes, XFCE took care of everything.  However, at the time of the install - 
November 2/3 - the logout functions weren't working properly here either via 
the gui but did in terminal.  Centurion_Dan had to tweak upower.  I installed 
his fix on December 21.  You can read the #devuan discussion here starting in 
early December:

That command threw up gibberish in terminal but I looked at the archive for the 
original install, searched for polkit and it wasn't there.   Only these pkgs 
were installed:

libpolkit-gobject-1-0:i386 0.105-9+devuan1
libpolkit-agent-1-0:i386 0.105-9+devuan1
libpolkit-agent-1-0:i386 0.105-9+devuan1

No output.

Interesting.  Since I have some Mate pkgs installed I do have mate-polkit and 
mate-polkit-common installed.
